Radford’s theory of change shifted from viewing governments as arbitrators between public and private interests on environmental issues, to finding that most governments are captured by industry. Rather than fighting first for new laws, which could be blocked by industries, he has focused on pressuring large companies to change their practices and enlisted them as allies in pushing for strong environmental protections.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://cleantechiq.com/2013/01/activists-invade-the-boardroom/ )〕 Examples include Greenpeace campaigns that convinced Apple, Inc. and similar companies to shift to 100% clean energy and lobby utilities and regulators to make that possible,〔(【引用サイトリンク】Greenpeace USA">url= http://www.greenpeace.org/usa/en/media-center/news-releases/Greenpeace-Executive-Director-Philip-Radford-to-Step-Down/ )〕 as well as work to protect both the Indonesian rainforest and the Bering Sea Canyons.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://www.environmentalleader.com/2013/05/31/whole-foods-safeway-trader-joes-top-sustainable-seafood-list/ )〕 Radford argues that the combination of creating industry champions and “outside pressure” focused on the government are the keys to passing new laws to protect the environment.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://cleantechiq.com/2013/01/activists-invade-the-boardroom/ )〕 However, Radford has also been a vocal leader calling for the United States to pass campaign finance reform and respect all Americans' voting rights to shift power in politics from corporations towards people and fulfill "the promise of American democracy." Radford is considered by many to be a modern-day transcendentalist, in that he is very focused on nature and the environment, and he is an advocate of democracy.〔(【引用サイトリンク】C-SPAN ">url= http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/ProgressiveAgenda )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】Huffington Post ">url= http://www.huffingtonpost.com/philip-radford/if-you-want-to-breathe-cl_b_3600018.html )〕 ==Early life== Radford received his B.A. from Washington University in St. Louis in 1998.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://magazine-archives.wustl.edu/Fall09/Classmates.html )〕
